Baldur Cap

The quartermaster was always stingy. He was a firm believer in only replacing equipment when absolutely necessary, which made for cold nights under worn blankets, and miserable days spent walking in distressed shoes.

Luckily, you grew up looking after yourself and learned how useful a good hat could be. You made your Baldur Cap yourself, proudly perched on your head to protect yourself from the burning sun and the bitter cold.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Dark Brown Cap Baldur is a skullcap that comfortably fits over the top of the head. Made from 100% cotton and designed to sit smoothly on the head without bunching up or falling off, this cap can be worn on its own or as padding beneath a light helmet.

The Cap Baldur is a great solution to chilly or sunny days, protecting the top of your head from the elements. It does not need to be secured to the head, but easily sits on its own over your scalp and hair. With its neutral style, the Cap Baldur will work on a wide variety of characters. Match it with other Epic Armoury armours and clothes to fit your unique style!

HISTORY

• Used as padding under helmets
• Historically, similar to a Viking’s skullcap

The "Garen" suede vest is suitable for various costume ideas. Beneath the shoulder cuffs there are several eyelets that can be used to attach either the long or the short sleeves. The vest is closed by four decorative buckle straps in the front. A really pretty garment at a great price-performance ratio.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Epic Black Hat Samy is a cap inspired by the popular Venetian style of the 14th- to 15th-centuries--and is a little reminiscent of a proper halfling cook, too! It fits over the top of the head comfortably and is made from black cotton, gathered beneath the folded brim to give it volume. This cap is designed to sit around the top of the forehead, and is specifically for children.

The Hat Samy is a great addition to your child’s costume. It does not need to be secured to the head, but easily sits on its own over the scalp and hair. Match it with the Epic Armoury Samy collection for a full halfling (or neutral medieval) look.

HISTORY
